Problems solved by technology

The multiple layers of conductive grounding foil and braided shield cause the HEC cable to have a larger diameter than the typical coaxial cables, thereby making insertion of the prepared coaxial cable into the typical F-connectors difficult if not impossible.
Thus, the termination of the HEC coaxial cables is extremely difficult, if not close to impossible, using

Abstract

A connector for coaxial cable is disclosed herein that has an outer body, the outer body has at least one thread on a rearward portion thereof, and tubular post having at least one projection thereon. The outer body and the tubular post are movable relative to one another to compress a portion of the coaxial cable in the connector and to draw the braided shield of the coaxial cable into the connector. The present coaxial connector accommodates coaxial cables with larger amounts of braided shielding. A related method for connecting the coaxial cable and connector is also disclosed.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0001]1. Field of the Invention[0002]The present invention relates generally to coaxial cable connectors, and particularly to coaxial drop cable connectors capable of being connected to a terminal.[0003]2. Technical Background[0004]Coaxial cable connectors such as F-connectors are used to attach coaxial cables to another object such as an appliance or junction having a terminal adapted to engage the coaxial cable connector. Coaxial cable F-connectors are often used to terminate a drop cable in a cable television system. The coaxial cable typically includes a center conductor surrounded by a dielectric, in turn surrounded by a conductive grounding foil and / or braided shield; the conductive grounding foil and / or braided shield are in turn surrounded by a protective outer jacket. The F-connector is secured over the prepared end of the jacketed coaxial cable, allowing the end of the coaxial cable to be connected with a terminal block, such as by a threaded con...
